I'm trying to collect photos of the Grand River Greenfield area from when it was at it's peak in the 50's and '70's. Whole sections of that area are quite different now. Many of the stores are long gone too. Some buildings remain but it sure looks different. I'd like to document the area.
Got to be some old photos in family albums. I have a nice gift card for first offer.
Attachment 19620 a little further out, Grand River and Longacre.
Here's one from 1980. I have some from the 40's around Livernois, Lothrop, and Lasher.

How's this?
That was a photo my sister took. I have the original photo along with one of Hughes Hatcher Suffrin plus one of the Wards bldg. Don't have any of the Cunningham's [[NW) corner from back in the day.
Cunningham's Drug Store was built in 1959.
Still canvassing for old photos of the Grand River- Greenfield neighborhood.
Trying to get an photos of Wrigleys and American Legion buildings on Greenfield.
Have any to share?
I have found a few sketches of the area. Still looking for photos.Attachment 31353
